Nancy attended New England College and University of New Hampshire. She was the daughter of David Fox, who was in the first graduating class at NEC and she attended on full scholarship. In California, she was a technical writer for several corporations and manager of Creative Services.

Nancy was her own person; principled, honest, ethical and genuine. All who knew her appreciated her sense of humor and courage to always stand up for what is right. She absolutely loved all of her pets as if they were her children. She had a deep rooted admiration and love for all living things as well as the life of the planet. She so loved the ocean, her gardens and her birds. She loved to cook and entertain friends and family, who she cared deeply for, and she really loved her lobstah.

She was my true love who I was blessed to enjoy life with and share years of joy, laughter, adventures, humor, love, and respect. We had 45 amazing years together, marrying July 28, 2011, when it became legal in NH. We raised a son and a daughter and moved to California for 23 years from 1980 to 2003.
